Buying a used 2021 Genesis GV80? Check these 5 recalls first

5 NHTSA recalls · 59 owner complaints on file

The 2021 GV80 carries two separate critical fuel line leak recalls, two seat belt pretensioner recalls covering parts that can explode in a crash, and a fuel pump failure recall — none with stop-driving or park-outside warnings. Owners filed 59 unverified NHTSA complaints with 5 crashes, 3 injuries, and 1 fire reported. Notably, the top complaint areas are electrical (14) and exterior lighting (12), ahead of fuel/propulsion (11), so the complaint pattern only partly overlaps the recalls.

Before you buy

1. Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
2. Ask for repair orders covering both fuel line recalls, the fuel pump, and both pretensioner recalls
3. Inspect all exterior lighting and check for warning lamps or electrical faults
4. Check underneath and in the engine bay for fuel staining or odor
5. Open recalls are repaired free at any Genesis dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
